As of yesterday, we've had exactly 50 RSVPs come in. We'll need to start contacting people after Friday. (Yes, the deadline was August 1st). We'll need to call or email about 12 people. We've had a few contact us that they're trying to figure out who will be able to make the trip (my cousins, not sure if the whole family can come, etc). Overall, we've done VERY well. :yay:

Do not under any circumstances send money or gifts to either Wally or Rosie! (or KingLouie or anybody else, for that matter).

In all honesty, we've created a couple of small registries for family because they pressured us into it. We're really not doing this to get presents. (The virtual shower has been great for that, because they're virtual presents! ) We just wanted to get the special people in our life together so we could celebrate what Scott and I have with them. There's not honestly much we NEED, so we didn't give any thought to asking for gifts. Boy howdy, though did we get push back on that! My father keeps telling the relatives that we're registered at the bank and that a "bucket of cash" is the recommended present!

James and I only did it for the presents...and look what happened to us....We figure after 25 yrs they'll not think we duped them....but next year we call it quits

Dibs on the fondu set! :rotfl:

Oh, Rosie, don't even joke like that. It's good to see two people, even straight/slightly bent ones, can make a relationship last for so long.

We are almost officially to 9 years. We always say that "We are planning a future, not a disaster!"

You can have the fondue set. We've already got 6 sets at our house.

Hmm. What havoc can you cause with all those pointy little forks? :confused:

Lindy...in all seriousness...I still adore James. You can imagine that in 25 yrs we've been through a heck of a lot ....A sense of humor definitely helps!

Not sure about havoc, but I do throw one HELL of a fondue party! :woohoo:

In my family, It's not uncommon for us to have a sit down dinner of 3 courses of fondue for more than 12 people. Quite the crazy scene with at least three pots going at any time.

SOO much fun.

Fondue has been my favorite meal for as long as I can remember, and is typically my choice for my birthday as well as a recent tradition developing for it to be Christmas Dinner(my sister's in-laws do the big turkey dinner on Christmas Eve, so our family started doing fondue on Christmas day).

Fondue Pots have also been my standard wedding gift to friends and family who are getting married. We've had to specifically communicate that "Rob & Scott have plenty of fondue sets!" for fear of getting another dozen as wedding gifts. :rotfl2:

You know I have not once eaten fondue.

The Melting Pot is a Fondue Restaurant Chain that is quite good. It looks like there are some in your neck of the woods. When you've got just you and your honey there, it's very romantic. It also looks like there might be a few independent fondue restaurants in the L.A. area. Those might be better than a chain.

We'll be invading the local Melting Pot within the next two weeks for my birthday. 11 people so far. Not quite intimate or romantic, but still very fun!

Wow - I thought the elderly had issues digesting milk products?-
and are you not concerned your cane will catch on fire or your walker will trip someone up and they 'll get molten cheese all over them. :eek:

I'm not worried about any of those things. I'm still quite young! (and I act even younger!)

I'm happy to be turning 40. Life's been a great ride so far, and each year is better than the last. I'm looking forward to the next one. :woohoo:

40!
And I'm the one you guys thought was tripping.

I have never fondue'd either. The closet Melting Pot is in the Detroit area, about hour and half away. I would love to partake in lots of melted cheese and chocolate.

kingLouiethe1 · Jul 30, 2008

I don't think I can fondue until after the wedding, I have 20 pounds to ditch and I don't think the fondue will help.

20lbs!

Are you trying to look like an Olson twin for the wedding?

jenn&nelsonrego · Jul 30, 2008

You are all the best. I cannot wait to check out the virtual shower...

I love this board, you are all so much fun!

Did you all hear the good news... The MA state leglislature is repealing an old law that states that couples from out of state cannot marry in MA... I guess it was a big obstacle for gay couples who wanted to come here to get married... It has passed here and is on Gov. Patricks desk for his signature... he has already said he will sign it...

So... what dont you guys head up here for a quickie wedding then have your Disney reception???

The DH and I would be happy to be your witnesses (you need two in MA)...
